In the summer of 1942, Rommel's Afrika Korps swept across the Western Desert, sending the Allied forces into full retreat. Driven back deep into Egypt, Montgomery's 8th Army dug in along the El Alamein Line, prepared for battle. This factual film portrays the events leading up to and during, one of the greatest battles in the Second World War, the Battle of El Alamein.

USS Massachusetts participated in the Naval Battle of Casablanca, which began early on the morning of 8 November. The ships were tasked with neutralizing the primary French defenses, which included coastal guns on El Hank, several submarines, and the incomplete battleship Jean Bart which lay at anchor in the harbor with only half of its main battery installed. Massachusetts began firing at 07:04 at a range of 22,000 m (72,000 ft) and shortly thereafter came under fire from Jean Bart that morning, and she returned fire at 07:40. Wichita and Tuscaloosa initially engaged the French batteries on El Hank and the French submarine pens, while Massachusetts attacked Jean Bart. French naval forces, led by the cruiser Primauguet, put up a stubborn defense. Massachusetts and the American cruisers broke up attempts by French destroyers to attack the fleet before returning to shelling Jean Bart; in the course of the action, Massachusetts scored five hits on Jean Bart and disabled her main battery turret.[6][8][9][10]

Interesting and informative. Excellent photography job enabling viewers to better understand what/whom the orator was describing. Professional class A research project!!! Had Mussolini's inferior trained/ill equipped troops. Had more motivated professional military operations training. Better battle field equipment. Perhaps they would have made a better showing of themselves at the 2nd battle of El Alamein. They were driven from Spain & Greece in a humiliating disorganized retreat/defeat. So why not North Africa??? For the most part being conscripted. Those soldiers had little if any interest being under the command of disillusioned Mussolini 😈😈and it showed.

Rather disappointing. Lots of pictures but little about strategy, maps would help, not mere mention of north or south. Reminds one rather of a high school essay.

Load of rubbish. Tobruk was held by Australians for 8 months but no mention of that. Then when the British were handed Tobruk it fell in a couple of days. But no mention again. Very biased video.

he mentioned Australians captured Bardia and right after Tobruk was taken. though he doesn't specify the Australians took Tobruk, it's implied by the previous statement.
